Scheduled six times per year, Soup ‘n Walks combine a guided group walk on the Arboretum’s trails led by a docent naturalist, followed by a nutritious catered lunch in the Visitor’s Center.

Every Soup ‘n Walk program is based upon a seasonal theme. The lunch menu is thoughtfully planned to reflect that theme. A brief talk about nutrition is presented during lunch, and recipes are available for all of the dishes served.

Golf carts with trained drivers are available at no extra charge but arrangements must be made in advance. Click here to request a golf cart for an upcoming Soup ‘n Walk.

Adkins Arboretum’s Gift Shop offers 20% off all items the day of Soup ‘n Walk programs for all Visitors.

We are unable to accommodate dogs at Soup ‘n Walk events unless they are service animals.
